CDROM and Intel VX M/B Problem

I have just replaced my motherboard with the new Intel VX chipset
motherboard and cannot use my Sanyo H94 CDROM (connected to a
MediaVision JAZZ 16 sound card) anymore. The problem is that the Linux
support requires that the soundcard/cdrom be initialized in dos/win
followed by a soft reboot into Linux (kernel 2.0.18). The new M/B however
Resets the card during a soft reboot since it has added support for
booting directly from a cdrom (atleast it appears that way!). I am
wondering if there is a way around this? Any help would be much
appreciated!
